Please Fix Slaughter

Snip.

I agree that at times double teaming seems to be just random trolling. But like I said before majority of the time the team getting doubleteamed had it coming.

You're a dps right: a BLM. You burn an entire MP worth of Fire 1s on a target but they don't die - you switch to a new target - you switch until you find one that isn't getting healed through your damage or is too stupid to not break range.

Now imagine all 50+ dps in the match doing the exact same target cycling. Evantually the needle drops.

Oh, please. Slaughter should not have a 1vs1vs1 anyway. It's pointless and makes win trading so easy, especially since guilds can just work together with no prob. Win trade is one thing when 1vs1, both agreed to it. If a guild joins on two sides and just helps each other out against the third, that's a different thing.

There should be no premades anyway or separated from the randoms.

@ Cometeors:
You don't need a single kill to start - you will get them with the first wave. Also it's VERY easy to avoid dying as a RDPS. Just stay with your group. You can fall back, if some are insane enough to follow into your third of the arena, they will get slaughtered there. So stop crying about it. Cometeor is stupid, especially combined with mass sleep/freeze and the lag many people got.

I got zero lag and still there are cometeors you can't dodge, because the other guy (and there are ways to provoke this) got such lag, that the server gets problems with sending the AoE marker to you.

rofl you honestly think there is win trading going on in Slaughter?

You should read his other post in another thread... just as ridiculous:

Just remove achievements and mounts or make them buyable otherwise. PvP will be gone then anyway (it even now almost is, you can't enter arena and frontlines take forever). How many are playing them for fun?

PvP is full of bots, win traders, leechers, roulette players (since 100/40 a day in a few minutes is nice to have), who don't care and even cheaters (no, I won't link to hacks, but of course EVERY MMO got them). This just means: it's no PvP at all...

Exactly, like some pvp shadow organization governs the Slaughter queue lol. Until they apply ranked matches, there's no reason premades and pugs should be separated. I repeat; WHINER THREAD ALERT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Until the day that premades of more than, say, 3-4 people aren't matched up against randoms anymore, I support nerfing Cometeor. That 5 second LB immunity after getting hit by an LB someone suggested in this thread sounded rather good to me. That way, Cometeor can stay strong and really useful when used correctly, while removing the cheap instant kill crap premades are so happily abusing all over the place.

Would that apply per faction or per character? I can see a huge amount of whining if one GC didnt get a load of kills because they cast thier LB on a low hp group immune to LBs from the other GCs cometeor

I'm not arguing for or against this, just food for thought on the idea

The most interesting thing is that it doesn't matter what you do for the first 100 points, any team that is doing well at the start will get double-teamed and wiped, multiple times if needed.

Too bad exactly this does not happen. It's 2vs1 from the start and if it stands 21:21:5 (from 30), those two 21 still ignore each other.

Well, I was talking about 72 matches. But even in 24 ones two leading teams taking it out on the weaker one is something I see very rarely.

I personally think there should be some kind of limit to Cometeors in 72 matches, e.g. don't make it charge faster with more K.O.s and receive the damage buff. It's just too easy to rack up kill with it. I'd say remove both of these things from 72 matches. Maybe still keep battlehigh/-fever as it's the only comeback mechanic you have after you destroyed all nodes.

Also, we need a new map for 72 Slaughter.
